Clinical trial Recruiting at 16 sites Phase1; Phase2 Interventional Ages 18 and up

GVV858 alone or with fulvestrant or letrozole for HR+/HER2- breast cancer and other advanced tumors

Official title: An Open-label, Multi-center, Phase I/II Study of GVV858 as a Single Agent and in Combination With Endocrine Therapy in Patients With Advanced Hormone Receptor Positive, HER2- Negative Breast Cancer and Other Advanced Solid Tumors

Run by Novartis · NCT07288359 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This trial tests whether GVV858 alone or with fulvestrant or letrozole can help adults with HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer, CCNE1‑amplified solid tumors, or metastatic castration‑resistant prostate cancer.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are adults with HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer who progressed after endocrine therapy plus a CDK4/6 inhibitor and additional systemic therapy, patients with advanced solid tumors harboring CCNE1 amplification, or men with metastatic castration‑resistant prostate cancer meeting the trial's prior-therapy limits.

Probably not a fit

Patients with early-stage disease, tumors without CCNE1 amplification for the targeted cohorts, those with a neuroendocrine component in prostate cancer, or those who do not meet the prior-therapy requirements are unlikely to benefit from this early-phase trial.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This first-in-human, open-label Phase I/II trial gives GVV858 as a single agent and in combination with fulvestrant or letrozole across several advanced cancer cohorts. Phase I uses dose-escalation with possible expansion cohorts to define safety, tolerability, and a recommended dose for further study. A combination arm may proceed into a randomized, open-label Phase II with optional dose optimization specifically in HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer. Efficacy signals will be explored alongside safety, with expansion cohorts stratified by disease type and CCNE1 amplification where applicable.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, GVV858 could provide a new targeted treatment option that slows tumor growth for patients with HR+/HER2- breast cancer or CCNE1‑amplified tumors and potentially extend progression-free survival.

How similar studies have gone: Combining targeted agents with endocrine therapy has improved outcomes in HR+/HER2- breast cancer (for example CDK4/6 inhibitors), but GVV858 is first-in-human and its specific approach has not yet been proven in patients.

Show full inclusion / exclusion criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

* Age ≥ 18 years old.
* Patients with one of the following histologically or cytologically confirmed advanced cancers:
* Phase I (patients with one of the following cancers, from whom no standard therapy is available or appropriate in the judgment of the investigator):

  * HR+/HER2- advanced breast cancer (aBC) with disease progression on or following at least one line of hormone-based therapy in combination with a CDK4/6i and at least one additional line of systemic therapy for metastatic disease.
  * Locally advanced or metastatic cancer with a CCNE1 amplification. For dose expansion only: no more than 3 prior lines of therapy for advanced or metastatic disease.
  * Metastatic castration-resistant prostate adenocarcinoma (mCRPC), with no documented neuroendocrine component, castrate level of testosterone. For dose expansion only: no more than 3 prior lines of systemic therapy for metastatic disease.
* Phase II:

  • HR+/HER2- aBC with disease progression on or after an endocrine therapy in combination, with a CDK4/6 inhibitor for advanced disease with no more than 2 lines of endocrine therapy and no prior cytotoxic chemotherapy or antibody-drug-conjugate for advanced disease.
* Measurable disease as determined by RECIST v1.1.

  * BC only: If no measurable disease is present, then at least one predominantly lytic bone lesion must be present that can be accurately assessed at baseline and is suitable for repeated assessment.
  * mCRPC only: If no measurable disease is present per PCWG3 modified RECIST, then at least 1 metastatic lesion must be present on bone scan imaging.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients with inadequate bone marrow and/or organ functions with out-of-range laboratory values.
* Clinically significant, uncontrolled heart disease and/or cardiac repolarization abnormality including myocardial infarction (MI), coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), long QT syndrome, or risk factors for Torsades de Pointes (TdP).
* Presence of symptomatic central nervous system (CNS) metastases or CNS metastases that require local therapy or increasing doses of corticosteroids within 2 weeks prior to study entry.
* Patients with visceral crisis.
* For patients with BC: Patient is concurrently using hormone replacement therapy.
* Women of childbearing potential who are unwilling to use highly effective contraception methods, pregnant or nursing women.

Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply.
